====== T.P.K. Henson ======
{{:32260757.jpg|}}

Controversial figure in the world of [[Tarvuism]]. A former Tarvuist [[Priestmunty]], Henson (b. Tarvus [later Terry] Peter Knowlesly Henson 1937, Wisconsin, USA) turned his back on [[Tarvuism]] in 1984 after a major disagreement with the higher priests of [[Tarvuism]] regarding his finances. 

Henson has since become something of a 'hate figure' to Tarvuists the world over. This is hardly surprising, as he has written a series of inflammatory books - beginning with the inflamatory 'T.A.R.V.U: The Anti Religion Vandals Unit' in 1987 - that attacked the religion, its [[beliefs]] and followers. Henson claimed financial irregularities amongst the organisation (although this has never been proved and indeed Henson lost a large court case with the [[Givil]] regarding this matter in 1996). More famously he claimed that [[Tarvu]]'s real name was Abli-Telvit, and that he was actually just a shepherd and not the Lord. Furthermore, he claimed that Abli-Telvit (or [[Tarvu]]) murdered a man called Thibbes, who was a cow-herder. He also suggested that [[Tarvu]] preached the gospel of 'constant masturbation', and that [[The Tarvunical Commission]] was made up of 'a hotchpotch of masturbators'.

In 1990, during a live radio interview with London radio station, LBC, Henson made the outrageous claim that the Great [[Chabernackle]] had not been a great temple, rather a large brothel.

Two days after the broadcast Henson was attacked by dogs, unleashed by [[Florian Jutburg]], a Belgian dog trainer. Henson needed weeks of reconstructive surgery to his bottom and groin, and successfully sued Jutburg for £300,000. The dogs were destroyed.
